Familiar Incidents

Coming off the island yesterday, after
of the old soldiers were standing in open
order. whilst the other divisions were
passing between the lines of the open
order division. The marching column
moved along, many of the men being old
and fatigued. and looking good deal like
an army after long days march, to-
wards evening One comrude in the
opel order line espied IN old friend in
the moving column. The first spoke
out:
Halo! jack How are YOUR
With quick response the reply came;
Tired How far is it to camp2'
Every old soldier who heard the re-
Spouse. kindled with enthusiasm at the
incident 1t was so true and life-Iike as
in the days of war when on the march.
A gang of workingmen were engaged
in scraping up the mud on Moline ave-
nue.. The Grand Army was on the street
cars going to Moline, and as they passed
the men at work, as quick as thought the
old soldiers among the workmen, with
their hoe handles, came to present
arms Their soldier training in the army
came back to them the instant they heard
the fife and drum and saw their old com.
rades passing in review.

5 O'Clock. 1t was a prettily contested
game, pleasant surprise to everybody
The pitching on both sides was first class,
there being no heavy hitting on either
side. Browner is a splendid pitcher and
if the Rock Islands could secure a man
like Cunningham as change pitcher, il
would be well fixed in this regard
Browner struck out ten men. Rosine
supported him admirably, playing the en-
tire game without passed ball. Rispen
